Let’s journey back to September 2015, remember that? It was probably a bit warmer then. Well September is when Graham found The Glam Rocks and decided to get in touch to see if we were available to perform for him and his lovely wife Gina for their 40th wedding anniversary next year. It sounded fabulous, and we said yes!Continue reading →

December saw the The Glam Rocks embark on their very first four-week overseas residency in the beautiful city of Eilat, sandwiched between Jordan and Egypt.

Our trip began with a journey over the Mediterranean flying to Tel Aviv. We we ready and excited for the shows which lay ahead.

The shows began and we loved every minute of it. Some nights we performed in school uniform as Jamie and The First Class, other nights we donned on our suits and boots and performed as our very popular outfit, The Zoots, and some nights we gave people quite the fright as we dressed up as The Glam Rocks.

December began to draw to a close in what felt like a blink of a heavily face-painted eye. And before we knew it, we we’re warming up to see in the New Year.

Spirits were high and the venue (The Three Monkeys) was packed as everyone was excited to say farewell to 2015 and hello to 2016. The guests did not know quite which band to expect and were just amazed when we were announced onto the stage dressed to thrill!

We knew it was going to be a great night, there wasn’t a spare seat anywhere! Fireworks and pyrotechnics were set up across the bay to entertain party goers when the bell tolled.

In between sets, we, The Glam Rocks, posed for photos and were interviewed by the local radio station EILAT 102 FM and local television.

Here are some photos from the night.

We had a fantastic few weeks in Eilat. When we had some free time during the day, we enjoyed sunbathing, relaxing and exploring the local area. We even headed out to the Dead Sea for a day, which was fantastic. Another day some of the boys went diving in The Red Sea.

We also enjoyed meeting some of our friends in the local ‘Ice Mall’. The Glam Rocks had lots of fun there and met some old friends Liat and Ellior with their child Gali.

In January 2011 I was asked to perform at the 40th birthday party for family friend Andrew Pearce at his house in Windsor. It was a 70s theme so I thought about what I could dress the band (jamie and the first class) a little differently . After a long two seconds I thought we could dress up as my favourite childhood band….. Kiss. I was going to be performing to many family friends so it had to be good! It took a long time to source the costumes, wigs and accessories, some of which I had to make myself. The make up and dressing up process took us about 2 hours but it was all worth while in the end. Nick Hill was dressed as Ace Frehley and somehow ended up with a red wig! Here is a picture of us with the host Andrew.

Kevin looked brilliant as the demon and I looked ridiculous as the star man with my home made outfit and platform boots. Such was my disguise that nobody at the party recognised me or the band as we went up to perform. There was people I had known my entire life and they had no idea who I was!

The response from the audience was phenomenal, they couldn’t take their eyes off us and didn’t stop dancing the whole night!

The Glam Rocks were born , it was the beginning of many more crazy nights!
It was such good fun and we had loads of enquiries so we decided to do it again and again!

It was such an awesome night and the crowd were brilliant, rumour had it you could hear us in Maidenhead five miles away!

It was quite hard to get used to the platform boots in the beginning but we rocked the house! Most people had seen the band perform as our 1960s tribute act The Zoots so nobody recognised us at all!

Opps upside your head had to played and of course it got everyone ‘down’ on the dancefloor!

There were some fantastic costumes, including Charlies Angels, Abba and platforms galore!
Below is me with my school friends Sarah and Louise who didn’t even recognise me when we started playing!
